About

Whimsical art from the imagination of Eloise

When I draw, the sun comes always from the west, the shadows always fall to the east.
All shoes are like my ever smiling red lustre mary janes that made me want to never grow up.....
..and all fingers are up to 4 in each hand, exactly as how I always used to miss 1 or 2 of them while counting...
There's a seven year old inside me that never grew up and takes over ....she makes me relive my childhood by playing the game of Hide n Seek.

My art "game" starts always in pencil. I tease my memories to come out from wherever they're hidden ...and just about when I think that they have left me and faded away for good...my pencil brings them back to life. All those carefree n frail moments, now earthy n soft lined drawings are inked with dark pigment ink which I've found that makes them stay and never hide again, and then digitally coloured with the colours that I loved as a child or I wished everything to be coloured in. A world of pale or vibrant playful pastels.

All my prints are printed here, at home, by my trusted printer and I hand finish everything with love and care for all my dear playmates out there to enjoy :)

Payment

I accept Paypal and Credit/Debit Cards through Etsy's direct checkout.

Do bombard me with questions if you are having technical issues with Paypal or Etsy and I will do my best to help you :)

Shipping

I will dispatch all goodies within five business days at most, usually much faster.
I will ship your order after I receive payment and I'll happily send your items anywhere that a postman can reach ;)

I use Tracked services within the UK and internationally. I only use normal 1st class for orders containing postcards only, so you get reasonable shipping costs when buying just a few postcards. Your items should arrive to you in a week or so, but you know how postal services are sometimes. So please drop me a line if your goodies seem to be delayed and I'll make sure to punish those lazy, big-bellied British postmen :D

I have rarely orders damaged or lost in the post but if something happens do let me know and I'll do my best to compensate for the rare sadistic postman :). All orders are insured up to US$30 excluding shipping costs and will be replaced once the postal services compensate us but if you make a bigger order do let me know if you want extra insurance.
In any case, we can only start a claim for lost items after 2 weeks for UK addresses and after 5 weeks for the rest of the world.

Finally, there shouldn't really be any customs charges, but if they happen to pop up, you will be responsible for them.

I will always send goodies to your Etsy address if you don't tell me otherwise, so go right ahead and drop me a line after you've made your order if you want them delivered somewhere else or if you are ordering something for a loved one :) I love taking part in gifts and surprises :D

I will always, always combine as much shipping as I can and I don't make a profit out of p&p costs. Please let me know if you make two or more separate orders that you want them to be combined, in case I miss it and send them separately.

Refunds and Exchanges

I did my best so that you will be happy with your handmade goodies and you will enjoy them, but in the unlikely event that you want to return them, just pop 'em in the mail within two weeks and I'll give your a full refund, minus the shipping costs. No questions asked and no hard feelings :D
The items should reach me in the same condition i sent them to you of course and i would highly suggest you get insured and recorded shipping if you plan to send something back to me.

* A note on jewellery *

Many of the jewellery pieces are unique and all of them are in very short supply. If something is lost or damaged in the post I may not be able to replace it for you. I will certainly do my best but sometimes a refund or replacement with something quite different might be the only option. The postmen will never hear the end of it though!

Additional policies and FAQs

You are very welcome to contact me for any bulk, wholesale or consignment orders and I'm very happy to work with lovely playmates on custom and commissioned projects!! :)

-*- Technical specifications -*-

... for those who like them or simply the very curious of you ...

All my prints are high resolution archival quality Giclee prints!!

All my prints are printed with an Epson Stylus Photo R1800, professional inkjet printer and the quality it produces is impressive. It uses a system of 8 different archival pigment inks which are vibrant, natural, velvety or satin glossy if needed, but above all they are very very persistent!! They are true, acid free pigments -no cheap dyes- that will last for 100 years easily or to say bluntly, as long as you care for them to do so.
...and yes I only use original Epson cartridges. ...yeah I know I'm so faithful...but that's because nothing beats the quality of the original inks, all others just colour (actually stain) paper for a while and then fade away.
I also use original archival heavyweight matte art paper for my art prints. It is toxic free, brilliantly white, so very smooth with a beautiful soft finish.
I use accurate ICC colour profiles so that everything I print has exactly the colours I intended it to. My artwork files are at 400 to 600 DPI (that's: Dots Per Inch) so that not even the slightest details are lost in print.
All my prints are always printed at the maximum quality settings that my printer can handle. :)

-*- And an important note on Colour! -*-

Keep in mind that the previews of my art that you see in my shop will probably appear slightly different in colour according to your monitor and how it is set-up. And they are certainly much brighter and livelier on print!! Especially Mac users may see everything a bit paler than it really is because I work on Windows. Be sure, though, that I take great pains in assuring beautiful and real colours in everything I print.

-*- 3D printed jewellery -*-

3D printed jewellery: I am very excited with my new 3D printed jewellery collection and it's very fun to be able to offer goodies that are really on the cutting edge of new technologies. I poured a lot of love into designing every curve of these goodies and I do my best so that you can be as happy as I am with all of them. Please keep the following things in mind though:
The materials used for manufacturing the jewellery make them suitable for decorative purposes and they are not suited for any other purpose. The jewellery are not suitable as toys to be given to children. The jewellery should not come in contact with electricity or food & drinks and should be kept away from heat. Here's some more details about specific materials.

Polyamide nylon: This is a very durable material while being very light and comfortable. It is porous, so it will absorb minuscule pollution particles in the air. The white version will turn yellowish over time if you expose it to direct sunlight. In sunny England (sob sob), I have left white nylon goodies under the sun for weeks with no visible discolouration. If you live in a sunnier part of the world... I envy you so much! :P

Stainless Steel, bronze-infused: There is a small amount of bronze in the stainless steel goodies, as part of the creation process. If you are allergic to bronze, better get a gold plated version. If it isn't available in the shop, let me know and we can work something out!
Because the amount of bronze varies, due to the creation process, the stainless steel pieces may vary slightly in colour, from an icy-steel type to a more golden-hue steel type. We try to photograph an average colour but there will be some variation from time to time.

Gold plating: Through intensive use, any gold plating can fade.

Finally, if I run out of a specific chain, I may substitute with a similar one without notice.

No animals were hurt in the creation of my new jewellery and I do not use real bones for casting or reference. I am vegan after all. :)
